Peyton Watson is headed to Cleveland, and the Nuggets are taking a lot of heat for letting him go. But I don’t think the decision is as bad as it looks.
Denver had already put itself in a difficult second-apron situation, and paying Watson $22 million per year would have made getting back under it extremely difficult. I think the Nuggets mismanaged their cap situation. They were stuck between a rock and a hard place.
For Cleveland, I really like the move. Watson gives them the size, defense and athleticism they need around James Harden, Donovan Mitchell, Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen. Cleveland is already all-in, and I think they took advantage of Denver’s situation.
I break down the trade, why Denver made the move, what Cleveland is getting in Watson, and whether this changes the Nuggets’ place in the Western Conference.
